Many people think of fixed-gear bikes and track bikes as the same, but they aren't. Track bicycles are designed for use on velodromes (indoor and outdoor oval bicycle tracks designed for racing). They do not have brakes because they aren't necessary due to the uniform direction of travel, lack of corners and the fact that no one can stop any faster than you can. In fact, most velodromes forbid the use of brakes for safety. Because velodrome surfaces are usually super smooth and uniform and because the racing events are usually fast and demanding, track bicycles boast frames that are built quite stiff for maximum efficiency. Plus, to promote better high-speed handling, the track bike's frame geometry is tighter and more race-oriented.

While some fixie fanatics prefer to ride track bikes on the street, especially those who are or were into track racing, it's generally not the best option for real-world fixed-gear riding due to the unforgiving stiff ride and lightning-quick handling, which respectively, beats you up a bit and forces you to pay close attention when riding. A better choice for most riders are fixies designed for the street, such as the ones we sell (keep in mind that we can easily convert any fixie to allow coasting should you prefer that option).

For the CR 564P, LOOK created a lightweight and aerodynamic track bicycle inspired from the R96’s geometry. Its oversized 100% carbon monobloc structure and streamlined tubes give it an exceptional power return.

The CR 564P is the ideal choice for a first truly aerodynamic bicycle. UCI approved, it can be used for any race or event.

CR 564PAeroTechnology

The aerodynamic technology that went into the CR 564 P was inspired by the legendary L96. The CR 564 P nevertheless represents a good alternative choice as it is a more forgiving overall. The frame and fork are formed in single integral piece and have oversized and aerodynamically shaped tubes.

The seat post also has an aerodynamic shape. The CR 564 P is a remarkably fast and performing bicycle.

HMCarbonTechnology

HM: High Modulus. «High-end» fibers. Their stiffness is very elevated, on average double that of HR fibers. The HM fibers permit more rigidity without the added weight. LOOK bicycles are made with either HM 3K or 1.5K fibers, the latter having a finer weave, therefore lighter (ie. a 1.5 fiber =1500 threads in 1 fiber).

The unidirectional fiber sheets, also known as UD: The carbon fibers on the sheet are all orientated in the same direction. A tube or any other carbon fabricated product, is made up of a succession of layers, one of the principal fabrication secrets and one of LOOK’s strengths, lies in the choice of fiber orientation for each layer. This allows a very precise control over the desired behavior for each manufactured piece.

For over 30 years, LOOK has developed a unique expertise and a vast experience of combining different types of fibers to achieve specific desired properties. We know how to vary the parameters of carbon composition to give a product a desired behavior.

On the Velodrome its all about putting the power down and cutting through the air as efficiently as possible. The AIR TRK frameset has been developed specifically for the track and is very aerodynamic whilst also offering excellent power transfer. The 4 position seat post and flexible geometry allow the riders position to be tuned for bunch events or the Pursuit. The Boardman AIR Elite TRK wheels are designed specifically to work in harmony with the TRK platform and provide a stiff, strong, reliable base for you to perform on.

Whatever your preferred discipline, we have made choosing your next track bike into a one bike race.

A special Carbon fork is designed for both your aerodynamic and practical needs. Aero profiled AL 7005 tubing on the TR Pro is bulkier than a standard road frame to gain extra stiffness.

Key Features:

Aerodynamic alloy frame

Mavic Eclipse wheel set

Carbon bladed fork

Note: There is no hole for front brake
